Presenting NadiaZ mission and the author

The NadiaZ mission is to celebrate and care for diversity in all forms of life – as diverse and unique as each one of us.

NadiaZ is an ethical and social company that supports the protection of biodiversity rather than overexploitation, mass production and unlimited growth. Its vision is to promote the creation of a virtuous circle where value is placed according to the scarcity and uniqueness of natural resource. Rare and sometimes threatened indigenous plant species are priviledged and valorized as ambassadors of their natural environment and the community managing it.

My name is Nadia Zuodar, I am the founder of NadiaZ, the most exclusive, premium ethical Natural perfume and cosmetic brand made in Switzerland sourcing its inspiration from Indigenous Plants and Cultures.
